Online retailer Green Man Gaming is offering CVG readers the chance to download a full, quality Introversion game for free. That's free. Nada. Gratis.
The title, Defcon: Everybody Dies, is a real-time strategy game with plenty of cool ground units, ships, aircraft and missiles - as well as some neat multiplayer modes.
Everybody Dies currently enjoys a MetaCritic and GameRankings average in the 80s, which certainly says "not bad at all" to us.
To grab your free game, just use the following code through this link over at Green Man: DEFC0-N4GMG-FUTU4
It must be used from Monday 20 December 2010 to Monday 27 December 2010. Simply use the code at checkout as directed. (Legal bit: check Green Man's T&C's for the site's full rules on using discount codes).
Green Man is a UK site specialising in PC downloads and digital trade-ins. Looks like they're wishing us all a Merry Christmas. Albeit one where Everybody Dies.

requires installing their downloader :/
and given that the site allows you to "trade in" old games, i assume you have to use it to launch the games as well. is that true?

Fuck Greenman Games' download client (Capsule), you don't need it. They'll email you an activation key, then just download the game's trial version from Introversion's site and then input it into that.

I've seen this game mentioned here and there all over the net for the past year but I haven't played it until just now and I really don't know how it's possible that this thread has gone this far, without a mention, to...

Open your eyes...I see...Your eyes are open
I don't think there's ever been anything that distills the pure essence of an airbrushed t-shirt from the 80's as perfectly as this.
harmony HARMONY Oh god...I'm gonna be singing that cheesy ass song for a month.

Free today only. Not sure how you undo a sale like this, though. Doesn't look like much of a game, per se, probably more Graveyard than The Path, but anything with Jarboe can't be bad.

Ahhahahhah Fatale! Ah ha ha ha ha!
Ooooh lordy!
I mean, I'm looking forward to Journey and Child of Eden and I like Flower and Flow and Dear Esther but...
What I mean to say is I like those arty games that might get the badge "pretentious" but that takes the biscuit. Don't get me wrong, I'd have it for free but I can't help but laugh at it. And it might well be awesome!
It just looks like it was made by this guy.
